The next day Jungkook had to go to the Lee Tech again. He got ready and was in the Lee Tech by 11:15.

" I came here to inspect the project before signing it." Jungkook said to the receptionist who nodded and called her boss immediately.

" Mr. Jeon!! It's a pleasure to see you here again. I was waiting for your arrival." It was Mr. Lee. Jungkook had an urge to roll his eyes just at the man's existence but tried to stop himself from doing so.

" Same here Mr. Lee. Let's not waste our time and directly go and see the project, shall we?" Jungkook asked professionally and Mr. Lee nodded.

" Sure Mr. Jeon. Follow me." Lee said.

He led Jungkook to a big production house, where they were making the circuit board of the mobile. He toured him around the different sections of the production house, where different parts of the mobile were made.

" Now you may think that we are making a simple mobile. But no, there is more to that. Each and every part of the mobile is attached to an assistant. Like for example, you have your own assistant who manages some work. The same way, the mobile has an assistant which is connected to the internal part of the mobile." Lee said.

Then he took him to an elevator. They were going underground. G1, G2, G3...The lift was going down and down and then finally it came to a stop.

And then they entered the place where the most important process of the project was going on. The making of the assistants.

" Welcome to the real part of the project. The virtual assistant." That was the project name. 'The Virtual Assistant'.

" The parts of the mobile are directly connected to the assistant according to the number." He said and toured Jungkook around the place. Jungkook felt bad. He felt like crying when he saw lifeless bodies on which they were experimenting. Some weird thing was attached to their heads.

" This is our assistant No. 48, the newest piece. He will be connected with piece 48 of our mobile." Lee said. Jungkook gulped so that he won't stutter.

" But how will you know that they are working or not? Do you even know if this is successful or not?" Jungkook asked him, trying his best to act professional.

" Some of our experiments worked well. We tried to experiment on them. From no. 9 to 15, all of them were successfully created. Since then we are using the same trick to make them. But from No. 16, we didn't have a few parts to complete the whole set. We need to order it from Russia but the thing is very costly to buy." He said.

" Then what about the first 8?" Jungkook asked.

" Unfortunately, they died." Lee said as they continued walking further and further. " See Mr. Jeon, there are certain processes through which we have to go through to make the assistant. Scanning, then putting the chip, brain control, coding and connecting it to the mobile. It takes a lot of time to do that and in this process, the body might stop to react and stop it's true functions. That's why they died." He said as if it was quite alright to do this.

Jungkook was trying to find Taehyung's body. But he couldn't find it anywhere.

" Hmm...and may I know why humans are being used? You know Mr. Lee if we get caught, it can be really bad to not only you, but also us." Jungkook said. He mentally patted himself for acting like a real CEO of some company.

" We tried to make computerized assistants, Mr. Jeon. They work well but lack in one thing. Emotions. They talk and act like a robot. So what is the difference between an in-built assistant and our virtual assistant? No one will buy it like that. So we tried to make an assistant which will show emotions. And who can do emotions better than a human!?" Lee chuckled and bought him to a room where he could tell him about the project better.

Lee knew that this project was one of the best in human history and it can not only be profitable to him, but also to the whole human kind. It can boost us more into the future.

" Now let me tell you each and every detail about the project Mr. Jeon. We got the idea to this project because of 'lonliness'. Yes you heard right. Today's generation uses mobile more, they spend more time in mobile to make themselves less lonely. They involve themselves in games and social media to forget that they are lonely." Lee said.

Jungkook wanted to nod too. He himself was lonely too. He spent most of his money on cars and most of his time in games. So Lee definitely wasn't wrong here.

" So we thought to enhance this technology. How can just a mobile help to cope up with loneliness? So we decided to virtual assistant. An assistant whom you can talk to and spend time with, and also he will do all of the work you want to do on your mobiles. People will use less mobile and start being active, and also not be lonely because of the assistant. People don't trust each other because they know that the other person won't be with them forever. But the assistant, he/she can stay with you forever. Life for all would be perfect." He continued.

It was as if he was trying to show only the positive side if the project. Jungkook had an urge to punch him. Lee wasn't saying anything wrong but he wasn't doing right either.

Humans today have become lazy, they have become lonely even though we live in a population of about 8 billion. We spend most of our time on mobiles rather than talking to the people around. We don't trust each other. We feel like they will use us, either for money or for looks or for something else. Man has got many problems. And this one assistant can solve most of them that are related to personal life.

What else would people want right? This is all they need.

" So we started to make the project. The computerized assistant. But when we used it as a trial, it just acted like a robot. And it would make no difference for people if they are talking to robot or be on a mobile. We wanted the assistant to be more, to show feelings, emotions. So the only way was experimenting it on humans. But then we didn't bring just any human out there, we looked for best looking, young people for our project. People give more importance to looks these days. So we got good looking people for this project. We also made them in such a way that only the owner of the mobile, the person who opens the mobile first will be able to see them. The phone will detect the person who first opens the mobile and the assistant will be visible to that person only. We tried and tested so that they will connect to their respective devices but our first 8 trials failed. Finally the last one was made successfully." Lee said.

" After the we could make 6 more assistants with the parts we had, but now we are out of parts. We took a lot if loan for the other parts too and we can go to downfall. But I assure you Mr. Jeon, a little help from you and this project will be the most profitable you ever signed." He said.

He showed all the positive aspects but forgot about the negative ones.

He was using innocent humans. He was using young people who still know nothing about the world yet. The families of the ones he kidnapped are weeping and searching for their dear child. What about all those people?

Take an example of his own boyfriend. How much he suffered by thinking that he is a human but he will still act as per the comand of the owner. Taehyung cannot talk to anyone leaving his owner. And he cannot touch anyone too, not even his owner.

He saw the sad smile on Taehyung's face when everyone was talking to each other. No one knows if he is present around them or not leaving Jungkook. And it might hurt him so much.

Jungkook closed his eyes trying to calm himself down. But Lee thought that he was thinking whether he should sign the contract or not.

" Ok. I'll sign it." Jungkook said. Lee was

on cloud nine. His biggest project will be successful, he was sure if that.

" Thank you so much Mr. Jeon. But I request you one thing, please keep it between us till we launch this project yeah? We don't want anyone to know about it." He said.

" Sure Mr. Lee. Let's hope this project will be successful enough. Because it should be as per you have said. I hope the you don't disappoint us." Jungkook said.

Lee nodded and walked him out if the project base.

Jungkook sighed as he sat in the car. He had many things to tell to Namjoon and Jin.
